About this map

Ravenna serves as the central hub of this West Michigan landscape, where the meandering course of Crockery Creek and its North Branch define the local geography. The map illustrates a rural transition at the boundary of Muskegon and Ottawa counties, connecting established settlements like Moorland, Slocum, and Harrisburg. For those tracing family histories, several burial grounds are documented, including Saint Catherines Cem, Moorland Cem, and Bell Place Cem.

Modern recreational use is prominent through the Musketawa State Trl, which cuts a straight path through the township, likely following a former rail corridor. The drainage network is extensive, featuring named waterways such as the Big and Outlet Drain, Porter Drain, and Cranberry Creek, reflecting the area's agricultural heritage. Further east, the village of Conklin anchors the southeastern corner, while the Rio Grande Creek winds through the southern fields.
